Airbag control unit with part number 95910-DW320

What does the airbag control unit 95910-DW320 do?

The airbag control unit 95910-DW320 is the central control unit of the restraint system (SRS) for Kia. It processes the signals from the crash sensors and decides in an accident, within milliseconds, which airbags and seatbelt pretensioners are triggered.

It also monitors the restraint system continuously. If it detects a fault, it shows this via the airbag warning light in the instrument cluster.

After an accident, the unit stores crash data and locks itself. This happens regardless of whether the airbags have actually been triggered.

Why does the control unit 95910-DW320 fail?

The most common cause is crash data stored after an accident, even if no airbag has been triggered. Aged electronic components, cold solder joints, moisture and corrosion at plug connections, and voltage spikes are also possible.

Crash data cannot be erased with a normal diagnostic tool. Airbag24 takes care of this during the repair by erasing the crash data.

Aged components, cold solder joints and moisture can only be precisely assessed on the unit itself on the test bench. Voltage spikes, for example from a weak battery or jump-starting, can also strain the electronics.

How can you tell that the 95910-DW320 is defective?

The airbag warning light gives the clearest indication when it stays on permanently or intermittently. Added to this are an error message in the instrument cluster, no connection to the diagnostic tool, or a fault memory that cannot be cleared.

As long as such a fault exists, the airbags and seatbelt pretensioners may not trigger in an emergency. Please have the warning checked promptly.
